I can’t remember his name. He’s a semi-regular on Morning Joe. He’s fairly young and he has crazy spiked/combed Mohawk with grey hair.

He pointed out that these emails show what that “class” of people really think about us, everyday people. Apparently parts of their conversations are about how fat and stupid people are. One email was someone stopping at a rest or gas station and how disgusted they were by what they saw. They felt the need to include it in messages. I think that goes into what you say, they know they have all the power including media and they will always be able to squash any movements unless they support them.
